    The ONE Hit Point World

    Through the discussion and me thinking about it some more I found out what interests me the most about this thought experiment: It´s not how to get this work as a good and balanced game, e.g. by adding DR as armor, increasing everyone´s AC, although those would be good methods for that. What...

    New Legends and Lore:Difficulty Class Warfare

    In my opinion, this system is brilliant and shows why Monte Cook is so high-regarded as a designer. When I assign difficulty levels for my players, I often have a hard time assigning a DC that fits the situation. I can see this going away when all I have to assign is one of the few difficulty...

    The 5e toolkit

    I´d like to see a return to the classic tropes of early edition D&D. Rules-light with fast combats, albeit keeping an eye on "realism". The system should be cleaned up with some 4eism, however - monster stat blocks have everything you need for the encounter, easy to build monsters, no buff...

    The ONE Hit Point World

    But hirelings could easily kill you for the loot.

    Your favorite sword from D&D lore

    Serithtial comes to mind, the sword found in Skeletons of Scarwall in Pathfinder´s Curse of the Crimson Throne Adventure Path.

    The ONE Hit Point World

    Hi, I just had this random idea and I´d like to share it with you. The idea is: What if - in your favorite edition of D&D - every creature in the world, including the player characters, had exactly 1 hit point? Also, they would never gain hit points by leveling. Everything else about the game...

    What´s your favourite system for Mass Combat?

    What´s your favourite system for Mass Combat? I´d like to include some fantasy mass combat action in the next campaign but I don´t what the best system is for it. Right now I haven´t even decided which rpg we want to play so I´m open for recommendations.

    City State of the Invincible Overlord - worth it?

    I found this book (Necromancer Games edition) in my FLGS. They still sell it for the original price but I am unsure whether I should get it. So now I´m wondering: Is it a collector´s piece and will bring me a fortune one day? Is it cool? Cheers, Rob.

    Why can't i find a system i really enjoy?

    Abandoned is a little harsh in my opinion. I got the vibe that Green Ronin basically felt that T20 had "finished", having published most of the supplements one could ever need. By the way, I´d be really interested to know what you mean by "small mistakes". You could check out Myth and Magic...

    What are the greatest published adventures you've run?

    Some of my favorites are: Tammeraut´s Fate Mad God´s Key The Lightless Depths (all three from Dungeon Magazine) Tower of the Last Baron (Paizo Adventure)

    Running a homebrew campaign is HARD

    I honestly feel very much the same. Right now I´m running the second campaign for which I created the world and the adventures. The first one was fun but failed in the eyes of some of my players since they had expected something different. The second one is running fine so far but we have only...

    Why oh why do they hate my NPCs?

    So it´s like that quite often: I introduce a cool new NPC into the game. Often a funny guy or a really interesting character. Someone with a lot of thought behind, meant to give an exciting twist to the game or just to be the nice one that the player characters can depend on in the future...

    Nice premade fantasy tokens?

    Hi there, maybe someone can help me here - I´m looking for a nice set of sturdy premade tokens for our fantasy rpg group. Buying a pdf and printing them is not an option since printing is ridiculously overpriced where I live. Cheers! Rob

    IMPORTANT! Should EN World continue reporting RPG news?

    I enjoy reading the news a lot. Whatever the decision will be, thanks for posting them in the past!!!

    Three Natural 20's in a Row

    Yes, it occured to me once, although I was at home alone and no one else saw it. Also heard the sound of the single clapping hand that day.

    How do you like the Dragon Age RPG?

    What I mean is the pen and paper version from Green Ronin. I recently got it and think it looks like a slick light game that I´d love to run If I could find willing players. However, I wonder if it runs as nice as it reads. How does the Dragon Dice mechanic work out in play? And will the...

    Has Grapple been fixed?

    I know the Pathfinder Grapple Rules (combat maneuvers) so this is not a question about how they work. I am interested to know whether you think that the rules for Grappling have been "fixed", whatever that may mean to you. Doesn´t matter if your opinion is based on actual play experience or...

    Need help with a cool Thieves Guild

    I´m looking for a Thieves Guild to put into my campaign, be it from an adventure, a setting book, someones homebrew notes, whatever. The members should have some kinda special shtick that lifts them from being ordinary thieves. Also great would be a map of the stronghold of the theives (guild...

    Can you suggest a RPG system.

    How about True20? It can do any setting, is easy to prep, based on 3.5 but not as complicated and needs no mat. Personally I disliked Savage Worlds but enjoyed True20 a lot. The Revised Rulebook + Warrior/Adepts/Expert´s Handbook is really all you need for countless hours of gaming.

    What the World needs: E6 in Book Format

    Great notes, the_orc_within, you have put lots of thought into this. I´m starting to see that this might be the best way to go. However, I´d absolutely wish for a nice and clean pdf of the whole E6 srd to print out and have at the table.
